THIS JOURNEY CAN BE ROUGH AND CHALLENGING ATIMES

I want to encourage
all believers who are having a big tough time keeping up their faith in
Christ due to the numerous challenges.This journey can be hectic atimes.

There are seasons when God seems to be missing in action.When it looks
as if He is no longer in your life again or seem to have forgotten you
or turned deaf ears to all your tears and prayers. There are moments in my life that I have come to a crossroad and begin to ask myself,

IS GOD WORTH SERVING?

In such moment of discouragement,

DO YOU KNOW WHAT I DO?

I just think back and reflect on all His past goodness in my life and tell myself,

THE SAME GOD THAT SAW ME ME THROUGH THEN WILL SEE ME THROUGH THIS ONE.

That puppy is so wise that He makes you to forget all His past goodness in your life and concentrate on what He is yet to do.
I remember there was a time my wife was with our sick baby hospitalized
and things were very tough for us then.I was so discouraged that it
affected my prayer life.I just prayed shabbily one night and slept off.

In a dream that night,I knelt down on a very big gigantic Bible with my
face downward.Two men suddenly appeared and touched me.So I put my face
up.The first one told me,

"YOU ARE MORE THAN THIS PROBLEM"

The second one said,

"GOD IS WITH YOU"

I woke up and meditated on those statements.If God is with me why am passing through all these temptations?

You see there are times when God doesn't make sense or seems to take
delight in our sufferings.But He doesn't.He is always with you.

"BUT ZION SAID,THE LORD HATH FORSAKEN ME,AND MY LORD HATH FORGOTTEN
ME.CAN A WOMAN FORGET HER SUCKING CHILD,THAT SHE SHOULD NOT HAVE
COMPASSION ON THE SON OF HER WOMB?YEA THEY MAY FORGET,YET WILL I NOT
FORGET THEE.BEHOLD,I HAVE GRAVEN THEE UPON THE PALMS OF MY HANDS;THY
WALLS ARE CONTINUALLY BEFORE ME" Isaiah 49:14-16

What a sweet
loving words from our God who cares for us more than any human can.In
times of trials and temptations,even though you get confused,dejected
and discouraged,be rest assured that Our Father is with still with you.

"BUT NOW THUS SAITH THE LORD THAT CREATED THEE,O JACOB,AND HE THAT
FORMED THEE,O ISRAEL,FEAR NOT:FOR I HAVE REDEEMED THEE,I HAVE CALLED
THEE BY THY NAME:THOU ART MINE.WHEN THOU PASSETH THROUGH THE WATERS,I
WILL BE WITH THEE;AND THROUGH THE RIVERS,THEY SHALL NOT OVERFLOW
THEE:WHEN THOU WALKEST THROUGH THE FIRE,THOU SHALT NOT BE BURNED;NEITHER
SHALL THE FLAME KINDLE UPON THEE" Isaiah 43:1-2

Hmm!!!God's Word
is final.You don't need to feel any particular ecstasy to believe
it.Just believe it whether you feel like or you don't.

If there
is one thing I have come to know about God,He doesn't disappoint.He may
show up late atimes but He will definitely show up.You can't die in that
battle.You can't be swallowed up by the wicked.Just hold unto His
Word.Keep confessing it while living the life He demands from you.Don't
compromise your faith because such has a way of complicating your life.

Don't join them to take short cut that will eventually cut your life
short.Don't go to the devil or his agents for solution because you will
pay back with your soul.Instead say like Job,

"EVEN THOUGH HE SLAY ME,YET WILL I SERVE HIM"

God is ever faithful.Keep up keeping up in your faith and walk with
God.He will definitely show up.I know He will.Don't listen to the voices
of those condemned puppies with their unconscious agents who might even
be your family members or friends.

GOD IS FAITHFUL

GOD IS LOVING

GOD IS GOOD

GOD IS MY FATHER AND MAKER

I WILL NEVER DENY GOD

I WILL WAIT ON HIM TILL MY CHANGE COME

"IF A MAN DIE,SHALL HE LIVE AGAIN?ALL THE DAYS OF MY APPOINTED TIME WILL I WAIT TILL MY CHANGE COME" Job 14:14

If Job can say this after He lost ten kids and all his properties with
his health,you can do better than him.Job's story is a challenge.I was
moved to tears when he uttered that solemn confession of faith in Job
13:15,

"THOUGH HE SLAY ME,YET WILL I TRUST IN HIM:BUT I WILL MAINTAIN MINE OWN WAYS BEFORE HIM"

What can be more challenging to God than to be resolute in your faith in times when your world has turned upside down? Be encouraged.This journey atimes might be challenging,but He is always by your side.

"...LO ,I AM WITH YOU ALWAY,EVEN UNTO THE END OF THE WORLD.AMEN" Mathew 28:20
